The effect of dietary protein-energy levels on growth and metabolism of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1988)
<ol><li>Groups of milkfish juveniles (mean weight, 2.8 g) were fed diets containing white fishmeal and gelatin with varying protein-energy to total metabolizable energy (PE:TME) ratios.</li><li>Amino acids were incorporated ...
Dietary P regulates phosphate transporter expression, phosphatase activity, and effluent P partitioning in trout culture
(Springer Verlag, 2003)
Phosphate utilization by fish is an important issue because of its critical roles in fish growth and aquatic environmental pollution. High dietary phosphorus (P) levels typically decrease the efficiency of P utilization, ...
Survival and some histological changes in Penaeus monodon Fabricius juveniles fed various carbohydrates
(Elsevier, 1983)
Juveniles of P. monodon Fabricius (initial mean weight 1.76 g) were reared on semipurified diets containing 10 or 40% maltose, sucrose, dextrin, molasses, cassava starch, corn starch or sago palm starch for 6 weeks. Highest ...
The effects of dietary tryptophan levels on growth and metabolism of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri)
(Cambridge University Press, 1984)
1. Groups of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) (mean weight 14 g) were given diets containing 0.8, 1.3, 2, 3, 4 or 6 g tryptophan/kg diet for 12 weeks.
2. By analysis of the growth results, the dietary requirement of ...
Effects of dietary l-tryptophan on the agonistic behavior, growth and survival of juvenile mud crab Scylla serrata
(Elsevier, 2010)
The reduction of the survival of mud crab during culture has been largely attributed to aggressive encounters and cannibalism. In some crustaceans, suppressed aggression is linked to increased concentration of circulating ...
Lysine and arginine requirements of juvenile Asian sea bass (Lates calcarifer)
(Blackwell Publishing, 2001)
Two separate experiments were conducted to determine the dietary requirements of juvenile Asian sea bass Lates calcarifer Bloch for lysine and arginine. Fish (average initial weight: lysine experiment, 13.12 ± 0.12 g; ...
Use of metaldehyde as a molluscicide in semi-commercial and commercial milkfish ponds
(Elsevier, 1998)
The effect of metaldehyde on brackish water pond snails, Cerithidea cingulata, was tested in 250 m2 ponds, and in semi-commercial and commercial milkfish ponds. The field trials were conducted at three locations, namely ...
Growth of juvenile Asian seabass, Lates calcarifer, fed varying carbohydrate and lipid levels
(Elsevier, 1997)
Growth performance of juvenile seabass (initial mean body weight, 0.90 ± 0.04 g) fed varying carbohydrate and lipid levels were determined using practical diets in a 2 × 3 factorial experiment. Two carbohydrate levels (15 ...
Improved reproductive performance of tiger tail seahorse, Hippocampus comes, by mysid shrimp fed singly or in combination with other natural food
(Springer Verlag, 2015)
The brood size, parturition frequency and parturition occurrence of tiger tail seahorse, Hippocampus comes were evaluated for 180 days using single and combined diets comprising Artemia salina, mysid shrimp Mesopodopsis ...
Requirements of juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) for essential amino acids
(American Society for Nutrition, 1993)
The dietary requirements of juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) for essential amino acids were determined in a series of experiments. The fish (< or = 8.0 g) were reared in fiber glass tanks provided with flow-through ...
